Water conservation components
The pitch: Ensure that every plant in your irrigation system receives the same amount of water and fertilizer, regardless of location, for a uniform, high-quality crop. Netafim greenhouse and nursery irrigation components from Growers Supply use up to 70 percent less water than traditional watering methods and can be custom-designed to suit the needs of your operation.

Micro-irrigation line
The pitch: Ideal for applications such as subsurface drip irrigation and semi-permanent crops, the Thinwall Dripline from Toro can also be used by growers who prefer a flat, molded emitter inside an extruded, thin-walled tube. The product requires 120-mesh filtration to minimize clogging, and the flat, molded emitter is resistant to plugging. It’s available in five different emitter flow rates; 10-, 13- and 15-mil wall thicknesses; and ?- and ?-inch internal diameters. Constructed from high-strength and premium quality materials, the extruded tube allows for easy installation and retrieval. The Thinwall Dripline is also compatible with all Toro Pro-Loc tape fittings.
